• Four of Nebraska’s six Big Ten wins have come against NCAA RPI Top 50 teams (through games Jan. 24), including at Rutgers (14), Iowa (31), at Minnesota (43) and Purdue (46). NU’s only conference losses have come to RPI No. 6 Ohio State and RPI No. 23 Michigan in overtime.

• Nebraska, which is a perfect 7-0 in true road games this season including 4-0 in the Big Ten, is coming off its most impressive performance of the season in a 75-51 victory over Purdue on Wednesday at Pinnacle Bank Arena in Lincoln.

• Iowa, which lost to Nebraska, 74-65 in Lincoln on Jan. 16, will be Nebraska’s fifth straight top-50 RPI opponent and seventh in the Huskers’ first nine Big Ten games.

In Iowa’s first 13 games, Meyer averaged 11.3 points and 5.0 assists while hitting 41.3 percent (26-63) of her threes.

• Iowa, which went 9-for-17 from three-point range in the win over Ohio State, hit just 5-of-37 threes (.135) during their three-game losing streak. The Hawkeyes went 0-for-7 at Nebraska, 2-for-14 from at Minnesota and 3-for-16 against Purdue. The Hawkeyes were outscored 66-15 from long range in the losses, including 27-0 at Nebraska.

• Sophomore point guard Kathleen Doyle ranks second among the Hawkeyes in scoring with 11.5 points per game, including 14.6 points and 8.4 assists in Big Ten play.
